    There is really no way of getting good pics down there. I followed this install guide to a T and everything worked out great! Check it out and see if it gives you some more clarity. Sorry that I couldn't be more help.

    Thanks i appreciate it. Thats one of the guides i used myself. Seems like my 17 pin plug has more wires than yours. But i did go about finding the same wires to use. It just has a weak pulse to it as opposed to the factory key fob trigger. Did you have the power lift gate and did it work for you. Mine doesnt.

    Yes, I have the power lift gate which works great as well. If I remember correctly, I had to change some of the dip switch settings in order to get all of the doors to unlock with the PKE function (sends 2 pulses) and to have the hatch operate as well. To open the hatch, I need to press the unlock button and then the hatch button twice.

    And you did it based off of the write up nothing added. Do you recall wiring it? Mine says only 1 wire to the switch i believe but couldnt get it to work. I may have to try again. When its not freezing out. Thanks again.

    I followed the write up for all wiring and used the user guide for the PKE to configure the dip switches.

    We're finally ditching our morimoto fogs, for the SS3s Pro, we originally were going to go this route.
    How do you like yours?

    That's great, our morimotos aren't cutting it for us. I'll have those up for sale after we get our sport ss3.

    Step it up to the pro if you have the extra coins. Well worth it. The sport is good also, but the pro though. Wooh!

    This is the max vs pro. He also mentioned the sport in it. But you can see how thick the beam pattern is on the pro. Not as defined as the sport and max.
    The sport is bout half the pro. I need to find that comparison thread over in tacomaworld.com

    Where did you order from?
    Diodedynamics website? Or lightwerkz.net?

    Lightwerkz.net are in new jersey and they are getting slammed with winter storm, so you may have to wait a couple days if they cant ship it out sooner.

    Looks great, Beau. It's come a long way! You might recall that I started stealing some of you mods early last year :). Since you asked, I ended up putting in 3 sets of dual USB fast chargers, one set for each row. Lot less of a PITA than using the inverter in row two w/ a plug! My photos, along w/ the new Android HU, are @ https://www.tundras.com/threads/nother-08-sequoia-build.65067/#post-2119558 post 23. I always liked your wireless charger but never found a use for it since the Motorola's I keep buy don't do wireless charging.

    Bummer, will the eBay seller honor a return/swap? (I haven't been that lucky w/ eBay in the past. Buyer beware, they tell me!)

    He let me keep it for $100 and when I found a replacement I sold it for the same so it worked out good. Definitely a buyer beware but these lights completely transform the front end, so completely worthwhile.

    Just installed the Morimoto 2stroke 3 LED for my low beams and Diode Dynamics ss3 pro fog lights on my new to me 2010 sequoia. So far loving the upgrades. Pics don’t do the headlights justice. The change is more noticeable behind the wheel. Lightwerkz was super helpful.

    OK guys, I picked up a BMW X5 and will be selling the Sequoia. Any ideas on the pricing? It has about 150k on it with impeccable service records and 10 pages worth of customizations. What have you been paying for yours recently? All help is much appreciated, and if anyone is in the market, maybe we can work something out. I have TOTAL confidence in this thing.
